Not that I wish to worry anyone but Vladimir Medinsky and Sergei Naryshkin have been on making fiery speeches claiming Russia faces an “existential threat” from the “totalitarian liberal regimes” of the west.

Yesterday Dmitry Peskov was asked under what circumstances Russia would use nuclear weapons and he said “if Russia faces an existential threat”

Ukrainian intelligence says Russia wants victory by May 9 to dovetail with the WWII victory date.

No link (yet) I’m afraid

some answers so shocking that they have to removed to spare our feelings

Is it me, or is this thread full of nonsense?- asks one
why single this thread out for reproof - every day ABers come out with nonsense masquerading as the finest most refeened thought.

as for the rewritten half a league
tennyson had had a few bevvies before writing that one

//Ukrainian intelligence says Russia wants victory by May 9 to dovetail with the WWII victory date. //

What's that all about? They surely don't regard themselves as 'liberators' .... do they?
//every day ABers come out with nonsense masquerading as the finest most refeened thought.//

Yes - I sometimes wonder why you even bother with it PP!

"What's that all about? They surely don't regard themselves as 'liberators' .... do they? "

Er well yes, or at least that is the constant claim if you have been following anything to have come out of the Kremlin recently.
I can't claim to have followed it as closely as you. but even they must have noticed that most of the world isn't wallowing in admiration of them.

The big question is: do they care?
This is the fascinating thing.
Russia has a complex relationship with the west.
> What's that all about? They surely don't regard themselves as 'liberators' .... do they?

Yes, I'm afraid they do. In their world, "the Ukraine", a region of Russia, was illegally captured in the turmoil following the breakdown of the Soviet Union under Mikhail Gorbachev - the rollback from Berlin through Poland went far too far, all the way "in" to Russia. And now, after years and years of tolerating this illegal theft and witnessing the terrible treatment of the Russians living under the rule of the illegal usurpers, and slowly doing something about it like the recapture of Crimea in 2014, they are finally looking to put matters right and get "the Ukraine" back into the folds of Mother Russia's skirts ... by bombing the whole place to smithereens and killing whoever is stupid enough to be nearby at the time.

Of course, Ukraine's riches (see https://www.telegraph.co.uk/business/2022/02/28/russias-ukraine-invasion-threatens-global-trade/ for a short list) and position on the Black Sea have nothing to do with it. They are merely what's rightfully Russia's anyway ...

That is their logic. They are liberating Ukraine from its captors, back into Russia where it belongs.
I have never understood why anyone would want to survive a nuclear war. Not only that but many of the people in them(politician types) would not survive 10 mins if they popped their head out (Remember mad Max?)

If they launch the Nukes head for the centre and get it over with quick rather then languishing in radioactive clouds slowly dying.

Windows whitened, doors off and clustered round the table.

Sorted.
The air attack warning sounds like ... This is the sound ...

Russian military announced the latest phase of its “operation.
Concentrating on “liberating” Donbas.
Never intended to take Kyiv or Kharkiv.
That was just a distraction.
Of course.
Not only untrue for what’s happened up to now but in all probability for what’s to come.
World leaders in disinformation
Putin and Peskov have been put in their place and they do not like it. Russia is in a sad place at the moment and the warlike rhetoric they say is a lot of hot air but should be taken seriously.
As I've been saying on here for a couple of weeks now:

Now is the time to take out that Equity Release you may have been thinking about. You won't have to pay a penny back because we'll all be toast soon enough. Do it! Do it now! Dooooo iiiiiiiit!!!
and shelling Lviv ( in the west)
French tv - there is no contradiction in this....
perhaps my French is bad but i did hear aucune and nerr
//every day ABers come out with nonsense masquerading as the finest most refeened thought.// I wonder why you even bother with it PP!

I am flattered that those that can read on AB sometime read my posts whether or not they understand them, thank you
yeah foo equity release in Ukraine seems like a really good deal for a house holder
That's what happens when it's too late to take it out.
Take it out now! Now Goddamit, NOW! Sure is worth it guv'nor!
